Can't spawn on certain servers.
#1

I've been having issues spawning at a server I play regularly on, plus a few other ones.
Upon logging in, the server I play regularly on has me spectating indefinitely until I quit.
I'm left staring at a landscape/scenic view. Whenever I write something in the chat (this particular server is a roleplaying server) it reads, "can't talk while spectating."
On another server, I get switched to another view of some default exterior, altough I'm able to use the chat.
It seems I actually spawn on that server, as I can discern my character/avatar for a split second until I'm left looking at landscape, again.

I've noticed that "Returning to class selection after next death" appears on the screen before logging in, although I haven't used the F4 button. I've read that this entirely client side, so something on my end must be triggering it.

This issue of mine doesn't seem very common but I'm hoping someone has an idea of what's causing this to happen.
I've tried downgrading from RC8 to plain 0.3e.
I've also tried after a entirely fresh install, deleting all the user files and root folders prior to reinstalling.
My modifications aren't causing it.

Admins are also unable to help me ingame at all, as teleporting yields no results. It reads that I've been teleported, although I'm still looking at an idle screen.

Sounds like a bug in the server.

Yet numerous other players are able to play on them just fine.
It does appear like the server scripts aren't enabling correctly for me.
Still, the fault must lie on my end.

I'm starting to think I'm virtually the only one that has this problem. I've had this problem once before, however it solved itself after 15 minutes or so. It's been several days this time.
All I can gather is that "Returning to class selection after next death" appears every single time (I'm emphasizing this because it could be a indication, as it appears on ALL servers I play on) and that something interfers with the process of spawning. The latter is just a theory.

I've tried a good number of potential solutions.
Hell, I've even unplugged my keyboard and logged into a few servers, it still appears.

It was a hardware problem all along. My keyboard was causing it, although it's strange why it would occur even when the keyboard was unplugged. The F4 button on my previous keyboard was broken.
